What Did You Keto Today? Part IV

I’ve got a small brisket rubbed for smoking tomorrow.

The dog looks lazy/relaxed too :smiley: I soooooo love these photos, the multiple dishes, the dog, everything.

Oh yes, there are such days. Lazy isn’t the best word for me now, I woke up at 4:30am and it’s super bad for me. I went back to sleep but I am a sleepy zombie all day, even brain wouldn’t cheer me up! :brain:

I got out 2 something from the freezer for my SO, boiled some carbs as a side dish (made it into some dessert but I could make simple desserts in my sleep, that’s not work), fried some eggs for myself and ate it with some leftover from yesterday…

Dinner was more serious but still not much work. Pizza for my SO (I tasted it. what if it’s normal bread dough, I couldn’t care less), I put canned mackerel on it… My SO grated the cheese…
And I made pancakes and put the dessert into them (yeah, grains again. if I had a bit more meat, I would do carnivore. so it’s IIFYM keto. not like I have any idea about my carb intake today but it can’t be very much)… If I made the mentioned dessert in my sleep, that would be pancake. I make pancakes very nearly every day in the last few weeks.

The filling is hidden so you can imagine it has no millet and sour cherries and blueberries… It has little carbs anyway, I swapped some millet with the dairy that is in the original dessert… It’s weird when I use some vegan dish that imitates something heavily animal product based dish and well, the original suits my diet much more but the vegan dish is way more tempting… After I added my eggs, of course so my version is vegetarian, actually. Few plant-based dishes survive in my kitchen especially if I am the target. They are marching towards carnivore as time passes and if it’s possible. Seitan stays seitan, it’s an anomaly as eggs don’t make it better :scream:

I shouldn’t write today, barely any filter on my brain. I just wanted to put this here (filled, rolled up thin pancakes as Hungarian pancakes are):


We can fill them with whatever. Once I want to make the famous meaty one, that must be good and filling. Egg and meat, always works for me, even with not tasty meat but with some tasty one, that must be great.

The first, smaller pancake is filled with very good quality cocoa powder. Still not carnivore but it’s not one of my (almost) carnivore day (obviously), it’s supposed to be tomorrow and it was yesterday. But they are simple and my hands are full with making okay photos about my flowers now, they are easier anyway.

One of my neighbors bought old hens from factories(? I guess so). They kept laying eggs nicely and had a very very nice open place with trees and very fetching roosters! Before they got their garden, they roamed free everywhere so the very numerous foxes ate some. I probably wrote about this somewhere else in this forum. Once I brought them all the caterpillars I could catch, they attacked my flowers in masses and the hens loved them. I bought my eggs from that place for a while.

My mints are in a flower box. I have lots of flower boxes in the garden and two are at a place where I pretty much forget them. It’s perfect for mint as it’s obviously pretty resilient :wink: And it’s nice in lemonade. Many of my green stuff is just there, I barely use them or not at all. At least I like looking at onion flowers… I have some small onions in flower boxes which aren’t normal onions so I just keep them to look at. (I don’t really “keep” them for something, they are just there and it would be much work to get them out and I have enough flower boxes for my smaller flowers. I got them with the house and they stayed.)
I never saw mints outside of my flower boxes… It would be fun to put them somewhere else… Most of my garden has grass and I don’t like grass, they can’t stay small and cute.
My sorrel already jumped away from its original place, it’s good as my raspberries and violet attacked them. They prettily coexist right now but the violets are violent, I need to step in sometimes, they are still almost everywhere… I am bad with discipline, I like freedom. But we have a lot of plants trying to go simply everywhere… I feel blessed it they aren’t thorny at the same time as half of my plants…

Pork belly roasted in the slow cooker all day, served with asparagus (in honour today of the start of the official season, St George’s Day!) and buttery shredded leek/Savoy cabbage combo. Heaven!


(Steaks b4 cakes! 🥩🥂) #769

Chipolatas, bacon, fried egg and buttery spinach for dinner

Whipped cream and chocolate for pud


#770

Beautiful colors! Even if I barely touch vegetables, I can appreciate them :smiley: My SO decided he wants asparagus now, I think we didn’t eat any since a decade at least… (I ate it about 2 times in my whole life…? Better than rhubarb, zero times. It doesn’t even look edible to me…)

Well, I finally reached out to my Seafood guy night before last to see if he was open for business, and he was. :+1: So I ordered some more Crabs. (I was actually out of both) So the Wife just spun by there while I was in work meetings and picked up my order. A case of Snow Crab and a case of Dungeness.

Snow Crab…

Dungeness…

Dinner… Snow Crab Legs, with some Shrimp and Steak


#776

Sausage topped with bacon and a dab of brie, half a green pepper and a sprig of Bok Choy. I never tried roasting Bok Choy before, but it tasted great.

Yesterday in Food

Smashburger with Colby Jack and Primal Catsup

Jalapeño Cheddar Sausage Links with Homemade Fennel Seed Sauerkraut :cowboy_hat_face:


(What else is there to talk about?) #779

Hi Dave! I’ve been seeing a lot of snow crab legs at the grocery stores. I was thinking of trying to make them at home. I’m just not clear on whether or not they are already steamed. How do you make yours?


(Full Metal KETO AF) #780

@Equines_or_Food Crab is never sold raw, it goes bad really fast uncooked. They must be cooked live. So basically you just steam and reheat when you buy them. :cowboy_hat_face:

Thursday OMAD:

1 x 1/3lb [GF/F 70/30] Beef patty on a cheese wrap w/ homemade mayo, lettuce, onion and no sugar added ketchup and a can of hearts of palm.

I had a smaller plate because while vacuum sealing the fresh ground meat … I had to snack on some (about 2/3lb so this kept things even)

Sausage and Eggs

Scrambled Eggs with Brie and fresh Tarragon

I planted tarragon last year and it didn’t seem to thrive. It died back and I didn’t know if I would have anything this year but it came back with a vengeance. Delicious, tarragon is one of my favorite herbs to add to eggs. :yum::cowboy_hat_face:
